Early in his career, this painter was employed under Pierre Cazes and later worked under Jean-Baptiste Van Loo while the latter was restoring Primaticcio frescoes at Fontainebleau. He received various commissions from his friend Charles-Nicolas Cochin. While working under Aved, a woman offered 400 livres for a portrait; Aved rejected the price, stating that he would only accept if portraits were as easy as the sausage that appeared in this man's The White Tablecloth. One significant step in his development as a painter was a study of the fur of his (*) dead rabbit, and he gave Louis XV a copy of one of his works which show children saying Grace, and depicted a fish on a wall in another. For 10 points, identify this painter of Le Bénédicité
